Crystal structure of μ-1κC:2(η(2))-carbonyl-carbonyl-1κC-chlorido-2κCl-μ-chlorido­borylene-1:2κ(2) B:B-[1(η(5))-penta­methyl­cyclo­penta­dien­yl](tri­cyclo­hexyl­phosphane-2κP)iron(II)platinum(II) benzene monosolvate

In the mol­ecular structure of the dinuclear title compound [η(5)-(C(5)(CH(3))(5))(CO)Fe{(μ-BCl)(μ-CO)}PtCl(P(C(6)H(11))(3))]·C(6)H(6), the two metal atoms, iron(II) and platinum(II), are bridged by one carbonyl (μ-CO) and one chlorido­borylene ligand (μ-BCl). The Pt(II) atom is additionally bound to a chloride ligand situated trans to the bridging borylene, and a tri­cyclo­hexyl­phosphane ligand (PCy(3)) trans to the carbonyl ligand, forming a distorted square-planar structural motif at the Pt(II) atom. The Fe(II) atom is bound to a penta­methyl­cyclo­penta­dienyl ligand [η(5)-C(5)(CH(3))(5)] and one carbonyl ligand (CO), forming a piano-stool structure. Additionally, one benzene solvent mol­ecule is incorporated into the crystal structure, positioned staggered relative to the penta­methyl­cyclo­penta­dienyl ligand at the Fe(II) atom, with a centroid–centroid separation of 3.630 (2) Å.
